If you're a L1/L2/CON manager, try this:

4-3-3 formation.
Direct passing.
Strong centre-backs, complimented by more pacey, attacking wingers.
The middle CM must be tough-tackling and defensive, the other two should be more creative and attack minded.
The middle ST should be a strong target man who holds up play, supported by pacey strikers.

In my second season at Derby, i changed from a 4-4-2 to a 5-3-2 Attacking, and i got promoted and in Season 3 have just qualified for Europe. http://community.sigames.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_cool.gif
I play it with attacking midfielders, and the tactics set to Emphasis: attacking;
Passing: direct;
Tackling: Normal;
Pressing: Yes;
Offside Trap: No;
Counter Attack: Yes;
Men Behind Ball: No

Hucknall_Elv I tried something very similar to your tactic at Rangers and so far so good, halfway through season and I'm 5 points clear at the top of the league

I use my FM tested patented 2-0 65 minute rule.

basically, if you go 2-0 up or are winning at 65 mins, turn the team setting to defensive. If you go 2-0 down or are losing at 65 mins, turn it to attacking. If you are drawing then leave it. Oh and I play a 442 diamond.

sean i just started a game with derby, did you try that tactic right from the start? because im finding it hard.

Hucknall_Elv

15-04-2006, 12:39

Gersguy_13,

Another good thing about the tactic, is that if you wanna stick with it you can offload surplus wide players, who can fetch a tidy sum of money and boost your coffers http://community.sigames.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Glad to hear it's working for you. http://community.sigames.com/customicons/icon14.gif

is it the same tactic you are using with arsenal and the conference/league2 team you are?

ntfc

16-04-2006, 03:27

Yes it was the same i tweaked it abit but the succes was varied so i kept it the same and my hinckley team have excelled.

There is one thing which will strike you all,one thing is i tweak this tactic ingame quite a bit.*cotinues his hitler essayhttp://community.sigames.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif*

16-04-2006, 04:23

Just had a OMFG moment..Playing as man utd in my first season 3rd in the prem with pretty average results board not too happy...next game - barcelona at home in the ECL quarter final and didnt have a clue how to approach it tactic wise...but ended up going.. 442 normal - attacking emphasis(*changed to normal h/t) - pressing yes(everything else no/normal) - my dl/dr/2mc hard tackling rest on team - my ml/mr/2fc team pressing rest no - all passing rlc - my ml/mr/2fc forward runs rest no and same for run with ball - my mr/fc (ronaldo/rooney)yes long shots - 1 mc(better passer) trough balls - my dl/dr/ml/mr cross ball - all def man marking, mid zonal, forwards none......... so i thought what the hell! And guess what happens next???.....

MAN UTD 6 BARCELONA 1
Van Nistlerooy - 5,19,30,88
Rooney 14,66

Ronaldinho 17

Stunning...i couldnt believe what i was seeing, i just ripped them apart! Definetly keeping this tactic saved!!
